Two killed, two injured in wreck
BY STEVE BEAVERS
sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

MICHIE, Tenn. — A two-car
accident claimed the lives of
two individuals Saturday.
Billy Ray Vunkannon, 31,
Gloster Street, Corinth, and Angelia Leigh Richardson Price,
48, Tulu Lane, Michie, were
both killed in a near head-on
collision that took place at the
Hubert Manuel Road intersection of Highway 22.

Two others were injured in
the wreck that happened at
11:31 a.m., according to the
Tennessee Highway Patrol report of Trooper Michael Richardson. Megan V. Ashe, 28,
of Corinth, was a passenger in
Vunkannon’s 1995 Chevrolet
truck while 10 year-old Dylan
M. Price was a passenger in the
1993 Chevrolet of Price.
Dylan Price, a student at
Michie Elementary School, was

listed in good condition at Le
Bonheur Children’s Hospital in
Memphis, Tenn. on Monday afternoon.
The Daily Corinthian left
a message with the Regional
Medical Center (Med) in Memphis, Tenn. about the condition
of Ashe, but an update was unavailable as of Monday evening.
Vunkannon was traveling
north on Highway 22 when
he failed to maintain proper

lane. He crossed into the opposite lane and hit Price, who
was traveling south, in the near
head-on collision.
Neither driver was wearing
their seat belt. D. Price, the
nephew of Angelia Price, was
the lone passenger with a safety
device on.
Trooper Richardson said he
did not believe safety restraints
would have made a difference
for either driver.

Funeral services for Price are
scheduled for 3 p.m. today at
Shackelford Funeral Directors
in Acton, Tenn.
Price was the office manager
at the Rienzi Clinic of Magnolia Regional Health Center
and member of Tate Baptist
Church.
Services for Vunkannon, a ceramic tile layer, are set for 2:30
p.m. today at Magnolia Funeral
Home.

BIGGERSVILLE — The desire to
help started with three sixth-grade
girls.
Their goal to assist those in need
quickly spread throughout Biggersville Elementary.
BES collected 543 canned good
items in less than a week to be donated to families in the area.
“We know they’re folks out there
in need,” said BES Principal Chris
Butler. “It all started with the sixthgrade and turned into a friendly
competition.”

Sixth-graders Alli Settlemires,
Maggie Harris and Annah Claire Isbell came up with the idea after discussing the devastation brought by
Superstorm Sandy to the East Coast.
“They wanted to do something,”
said sixth-grade teacher Pat Sawyer. “We have some really kindhearted kids and they know we are
all blessed beyond compare.”
The trio took their plan to Butler
on Monday and a letter was sent
home to parents notifying them of
the idea later that day. By Friday,
the over 500 items were being sorted to pass on to the families over

the weekend.
“We are planning on buying
some turkeys to go along with the
canned goods,” said Butler. “We
want to at least help four families
through this.”
The whole school got involved
with the drive with the third and
sixth grade bringing in over 100
items each.
“The competition didn’t matter,”
said Isbell. “It was all about those
people in need getting food.”
“We thought we could help and

City expands absentee
voting for referendum
BY JEBB JOHNSTON
jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth City Hall is expanding absentee voting for the
upcoming liquor election to a
third Saturday to help give people ample opportunity to cast a
ballot for the Dec. 11 election.
The first votes in the election
have already been cast, as absentee voting began last week.
The numbers are few thus far,
however, with seven absentees
cast as of Monday.
In addition to the two required Saturdays, City Hall will
open this Saturday from 8 a.m.
to 1 p.m. for absentee voting.
“We are doing this because of
the holiday season to give everyone plenty of time to vote,”
said City Clerk Vickie Roach.
“I believe the thought is you’ll
have a lot of students and people in town this week for the
holiday.”
City Hall will be closed on
Thursday and Friday of this

week.
This Saturday is in addition
to Saturday, Dec. 1 and Dec. 8,
when City Hall will open from 8
a.m. to noon as required by law.
Absentee ballots are also
available during the regular office hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
For those who prefer not to
get out, absentee ballots can be
requested by mail by phoning
City Hall.
“Ballots that are requested by
mail must be returned through
the mail,” said Roach. “They
cannot be hand delivered.”
Mailed absentee ballots must
arrive back at City Hall by Friday, Dec. 7, in order to count
toward the election.
Voters select either “for the
legal sale of alcoholic liquors”
or “against the legal sale of alcoholic liquors” on the special
election ballot.

More cities in state seeing
liquor referendum petitions
Associated Press

JACKSON — With
Corinth already scheduled for a referendum
on liquor sales, voters in
at least four others have
started petition drives
for such an election.
The Clarion-Ledger reports that organizers in
Senatobia, Philadelphia,
Iuka and Brookhaven are
collecting signatures under a state law that allows
some municipalities to
hold liquor referendums.
A new state law requires county seats and
cities of more than 5,000
do so if 20 percent of the
registered voters call for
it.
If the measure passes,

the city’s governing body
would decide whether
to allow only restaurant
sales by the glass or
package stores as well.
Corinth will have its
city-only referendum on
Tuesday, Dec. 11.
Mississippi was the
rst state to ratify the
18th Amendment establishing prohibition,
and was the last to repeal prohibition, a full
33 years after the federal
amendment was struck.
But like petition organizers in Corinth, Lincoln County liquor vote
supporters say their cities are losing money to
those that allow alcohol
sales.

Brookhaven
Mayor
Les Bumgarner said he
doesn’t drink but understands many people
want a glass of wine
or a mixed drink to go
with dinner. “When
you go to McComb you
see a lot of people from
Brookhaven, and they’re
always in a nice restaurant that sells liquor by
the glass,” he said. “You
don’t see them in the fast
food restaurants.”
Kathy
Waterbury,
spokeswoman for the
state Department of
Revenue, said overall
sales don’t change when
a dry area turns wet, but
they — and businesses —
do move.

CHS competition theater cast

Corinth High School competition theater cast presents “Slasrever Neves”
by Alan Haehnel on Monday, Nov. 26 at 7 p.m. in the high school auditorium.
Reverse the title of this large-cast comedy and what do you get? A fast-paced
parody and exploration of reversals in seven short scenes. A stereotypical villain plays the part of the innocent victim. The stage lighting in a Chekhov scene
directly opposes everything the three actresses are saying. And a play runs completely backwards from end to beginning, including the actual words. Tickets for
the production can be purchased at the door for $3 each. The cast will travel to
MSU to compete against 17 other schools in North Half Drama Festival on Friday,
Nov. 30.

Corinth, Miss.

Letter to the editor

Hateful speech not
welcome at Ole Miss
To the editor:
As student leaders of The University of
Mississippi, we want to respond to the incidents that occurred on our campus last Tuesday night. The hateful, small-minded actions
committed by some students are unacceptable and embarrassing; they have tarnished
the reputation of the university we love so
dearly.
This year was special as we celebrated the
University’s 50th year of integration — we’ve
made substantial strides in race-relations
since 1962. However, after the re-election of
President Barack Obama, a small group of
students took to campus streets playing “Dixie,” shouting, “The South will rise again,”
and screaming racial slurs at their fellow students. This behavior is absolutely unacceptable on The University of Mississippi’s campus, and it flies in the face of the University
Creed. Every single student on our campus
pledges to uphold the values of the Creed at
Orientation — including respect for the dignity of each person, and treating others with
fairness and civility. And, it is every student’s
responsibility to hold each another accountable for living a life that embraces the tenents
of the Creed.
We’ve made progress as a community and
as a university since James Meredith bravely
integrated our institution, but election night
reminded us we still have a long way to go.
The University of Mississippi is not a perfect
place — we must not be complacent. We cannot settle for the status quo or think we’ve
come far enough. That type of mentality is
the reason inequality, injustice, and prejudice still exist — and to move forward, we
need to have meaningful dialogue with one
another, face-to-face, not by tweets or text or
Facebook.
To move forward as a student body and
university, we need to discuss our differences
and strive to genuinely understand one another’s backgrounds, cultures, and beliefs.
Long gone should be the days of self-segregation, of exclusion, of hateful words, and of
ostracizing someone for being different. To
students who believe what happened on our
campus is somehow acceptable, and to those
who partook in hateful speech: you are not
welcome at The University of Mississippi. We
do not want you here. Our campus is not a
safe haven for hate.
The University of Mississippi is a campus
for all who follow the principles of our Creed.
We have our work cut out for us, but we’re
ready for the challenge to keep progressing
as a student body and as an institution. We
are dedicated to fostering and honoring the
University Creed not just on campus, but also
as representatives for The University of Mississippi around the state, the nation, and the
world.

Civil Rights Museum hires manager
JACKSON — The newly
hired project manager for
the Mississippi Civil Rights
Museum says she wants the
museum to tell stories of everyday people who helped
shatter barriers of segregation.
The state Department of
Archives and History has
hired Jacqueline K. Dace after a nationwide search, and
she begins work Dec. 1.
Dace, who lives in Chicago, tells The Associated
Press that in addition to
gathering artifacts and documents, she wants a strong
emphasis on collecting oral
histories.
“That’s one of the things
that I think is always great
and best for getting the personal stories told,” Dace
said. “So many times, we
hear about the heroes and
people that are of prominence. Yet, you had so many
other people who were the
foot soldiers.”
More than a generation
has passed since the height
of the civil rights movement
in the 1960s, and historians
face the challenges of an aging population: Memories

fade and people die.
“ T i m e
is short in
terms of being able to
tell those stoEmily ries,” Dace
Wagster said.
Pettus
Officials to
hope
to open
Capitol Dome
the
Civil
Rights Museum and a more comprehensive Mississippi History
Museum by 2017, the bicentennial of statehood.
Plans call for the two museums to be built next to
each other on what’s now
an empty ridge of land in
downtown Jackson, next
to the state archives building. The land is a couple of
blocks east of the state Capitol and just up a hill from
the State Fairgrounds.
Dace has more than two
decades of museum experience in Missouri and Illinois, including many years
at the Missouri History
Museum in St. Louis, where
she was curator of AfricanAmerican collections. For
the past two years, she has

been collections manager
for the DuSable Museum of
African-American History
in Chicago.
Former state Supreme
Court Justice Fred Banks
is chairman of the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum
Advisory Commission. In a
news release from the state
Department of Archives
and History, Banks said he
was impressed with Dace’s
experience and enthusiasm.
“I think that she will do
an excellent job in helping
to create a facility of which
we all can be proud,” Banks
said.
Department
director
Hank Holmes said in the
release that Dace has strong
organizational and communication skills, which
will help as she leads development of a museum that
“tells the story of the local
people who became heroes
of the movement.”
Dace grew up in Centreville, Ill., near St. Louis,
but her parents were from
Mississippi and she often
visited relatives in the state.
Both of her parents are now

deceased. Her mother grew
up in Tupelo, with family extending into Pontotoc
County, in the northeastern
part of the state. Her father’s
family is from south Mississippi, in the areas of Laurel
and Pachuta. Dace still has
relatives in the state.
“It’s almost like a homecoming for me,” she said.
Dace was born in the early 1960s and is too young
to have been an active participant in the civil rights
movement.
However, she remembers
that when her family traveled to Mississippi when
she was a child, there were
certain places her parents
wouldn’t stop because it
wouldn’t have been safe for
black people.
“My father had a run-in
with whites in Pachuta and
actually had to leave Mississippi for threat of being
killed,” Dace said. “For me
to be able to be involved in
the development of the Civil
Rights Museum, to tell this
history, is in my way closing
that circle and answering
many questions he would’ve
been wanting to ask.”

Republicans’ amnesty fantasy won’t fix problems
The networks had barely
called the election for President Barack Obama before
GOP elites rushed to embrace an amnesty for illegal
immigrants.
Getting killed by almost
3-1 among Latino voters understandably concentrates
the mind, but it’s no reason
to lose it. The post-election
Republican reaction has
been built on equal parts
panic, wishful thinking and
ethnic pandering.
It’s one thing to argue
that amnesty is the right
policy on the merits. It’s
another to depict it as the
magic key to unlocking the
Latino vote. John McCain
nearly immolated himself
within the Republican Party
with his support for amnesty and did all of four points
better among Latino voters
in 2008 than Mitt Romney
did in 2012, according to
exit polls.
What is the common
thread uniting McCain, the
advocate of “comprehensive” immigration reform,
and Romney, the advocate
of “self-deportation?” They
are both Republicans supporting conservative economic policies. Surely, that
had more to do with their
showing among Latinos
than anything they did or
didn’t say about immigration.

Latinos tend to have liberal attitudes toward government. Take health care.
An
ImpreMedia/Latino
Decisions poll of Latinos
conducted on the eve of the
election found that 61 percent of Latinos supported
leaving Obamacare in place.
Sixty-six percent believed
government should ensure
access to health insurance.
This might have something
to do with the fact that 32
percent of nonelderly Latinos lack health insurance,
about twice the national average.
In California, Heather
Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute noted in the
aftermath of the election,
“Hispanics will prove to be

even more decisive in the
victory of Governor Jerry
Brown’s Proposition 30,
which raised upper-income
taxes and the sales tax, than
in the Obama election.”
These are facts that never
intrude upon Wall Street
Journal editorials scolding
Republicans for supposedly turning their backs
on budding new recruits.
In the Journal’s telling, if
it weren’t for Republican
intransigence on immigration, Latino voters would
be eagerly joining the fight
for lower marginal tax rates
and the block-granting of
Medicaid.
A recent editorial invoked
the welcoming attitude of
Ronald Reagan. How much
of the Latino vote did Reagan get? In his landslide
of 1980, 35 percent. In his
landslide of 1984, 37 percent.
That’s better than Romney, but still a wipeout.
Reagan signed the amnesty
of 1986. What did it do for
the party’s standing among
Latinos? George H.W. Bush
only got 30 percent of the
Latino vote in his own landslide of 1988.
Republican donors with
a disproportionate influence in the party would be
perfectly happy to jettison
the cause of immigration
enforcement. They are fine
with a flood of low-skilled

immigrants competing with
low-skilled American workers. And why shouldn’t they
be? These immigrants don’t
suppress their wages; they
care for their children and
clean their pools.
Whenever it is pointed
out that illegal immigration tends to harm low-skill
workers already here, the
comeback is the scurrilous
canard that there are “some
jobs that no Americans will
do.” But most hotel maids,
construction workers, coal
miners and workers in
meatpacking — all tough,
thankless jobs — are U.S.born. If it is hard to entice
legal workers into such
positions, here is a radical
concept: Pay them more.
None of this is to deny
that the GOP has a tonal
problem on immigration,
or that Latino voters care
deeply about the issue. Absent a greater economic
appeal to all working-class
voters, though, it’s hard to
see how a rapid, obviously
opportunistic
turnabout
immigration will help the
party much. Amnesty isn’t
a quick fix for the GOP’s
problems. Would that it
were.

Weekend shooting
ends with 1 dead
PORT GIBSON — A
man described as an
“innocent bystander” by
authorities was killed
over the weekend in a
shooting outside a bar in
Claiborne County.
Sheriff Marvin Lucas
said that 38-year-old
Ivory Anderson was killed
Saturday when he walked
outside the bar and shot
during an exchange of
gunfire between two
other people.
Lucas says a second
man was wounded in
the shooting. The man
was taken to Claiborne
County Hospital, where
he was treated and released, according to a
spokesman.
Lucas says one man
was being held in the
case but no charges had
been filed. He says a
second man was being
sought. He declined to
identify the men.

3 coastal cities plan
drug task force
PASCAGOULA — The
cities of Moss Point,
Pascagoula and Gautier
have drawn up an agreement to form their own
drug task force.
The Mississippi Press
reported that the three
police departments will
target drug traffickers
and providing interdiction
enforcement inside the
three municipalities.
The cities’ agreement
will become effective
and operational with 30
days after approval by
the attorney general’s
office.
Moss Point Police
Chief Keith Davis says
funds for the Southeast
Mississippi Metropolitan
Enforcement Team will
come from by grants and

pooling the cities’ drug
forfeitures.
The task force has
applied for an Edward
Byrne Justice Assistance Grant which would
pay 75 percent of the
salaries for agents on
the enforcement team.
The three cities recently
pulled their agents out of
the Narcotics Task Force
of Jackson County.

DeSoto supervisors
to discuss ordinance
HERNANDO — The
DeSoto Board of Supervisors will continue its
public hearing Monday
on a proposed amended
ordinance to regulate the
discharge of firearms
and other weapons within the new county Greenways and Parks system.
At the panel’s Oct.
15 meeting, The Commercial Appeal reported
changes were made to
simplify the plan and
address gun-owner concerns.
Now it only deals with

discharge of weapons,
and drops lengthy possession and discharge
exemption language for
people with an enhanced
concealed-carry firearms
permit.
The revision simply
says that weapons
discharge is unlawful
for people except as a
lawful use of force in
the course of protecting themselves and the
safety of others.

1 dead, 1 wounded
following shooting
BILOXI — One person
is dead and another
wounded after a shooting at Keesler Air Force
Base’s off site family
campground.
Keesler officials said
an Army veteran, who
was going through a divorce, was staying at the
park when a domestic
disturbance broke out at
about 8:15 a.m. Sunday.
He was wounded and another person was killed
in the shooting. Base

officials haven’t released
the names of the two
victims.
Officials say it appears
the veteran’s spouse
showed up and a short
time later the shooting occurred. The case remains
under investigation.

Commission debates
property oversight
GREENVILLE — Preservationists in Greenville
are trying to determine
how far their jurisdiction
goes over minor repairs
to historical properties.
Walley Morse, secretary of the Joint Greenville Washington County
Historic Preservation
Commission, said that
concerns were raised in
the downtown historic
district regarding paint

and minor repairs.
“Property owners cannot alter or change or
destroy or remove anything that is altering the
building without our approval,” said Morse. “But
do we have control over
paint or paint colors?”
The commission was
given an undetermined
amount of control of
about 100 properties
after the Greenville City
Council approved the
local historic district in
September.
Two owners with a
total of nine properties
chose to opt out of the
district, Morse said, and
property owners can
choose to opt out at any
given time. Now, the
commissioners must decide what role they play
in upkeep of the remain-

ing 91 buildings.

US court orders
review of drug cases
JACKSON — The first
of five Mississippi drug
cases have been returned to a federal judge
for resentencing under
a U.S. Supreme Court
ruling.
The drug cases all
came out of the U.S. District Court in North Mississippi since 2010.
The 5th U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals this
past week returned the
case of Willie Lee Fields
to the north Mississippi
court. Fields was sentenced to 20 years in
prison on charges of possession of cocaine base
with intent to distribute
in 2010.

NEWARK, N.J. — New

The governor quipped:
“I know it! You people are
the worst! This is a setup!
I am not answering questions on Twinkies, no, no,
no, no, no, no. It’s bad
that I even said the word
‘Twinkie’ from behind
this microphone.”
Christie tried for years

to lose weight and often
jokes about his struggles. He once likened
his weight loss efforts to
“throwing a couple deck
chairs off of the Titanic.”
But Friday he said he
wouldn’t provide more
fodder to comedians.
“You know,” he said,
“I’m on ‘Saturday Night

Loose ends dominate
education plan
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s
education agenda for
next four years may look
less like real reform and
more like tying up loose
ends, experts say, with
practical budget issues
and an age-old power
struggle between Congress and the administration getting in the way.
Campaign-year aspirations for Obama’s
second term included
closing the educational
achievement gap and
boosting college graduation rates to the highest
in the world. But those
lofty goals may have to
wait, as lawmakers and
Obama tackle a number
of gritty funding-related
issues that just can’t
wait.
First up is sequestration, the automatic,
government-wide spending cuts set to knock out
8.2 percent of the funding to almost all of the
Education Department’s
programs — unless Congress acts before the
end of the year to avert
the cuts.
Programs intended to
reduce educational inequities will take a hit of
$1.3 billion, according to
the White House’s Office
of Management and Budget. Special education,
already funded far below
the levels Congress
originally promised, will
be slashed by more than
$1 billion. Most of the
reductions won’t take effect until next fall, when
the 2013-14 school year
starts, but Impact Aid,
which helps districts that
lose revenue due to local tax-exempt federal
property, would be cut
immediately.

tated by the fallout from
her extramarital affair
with retired Gen. David
Petraeus, which led to
his resignation as head
of the CIA.
A person close to
Broadwell said Sunday
she deeply regrets the
damage that’s been
done to her family and
everyone else’s, and she
is trying to repair that
and move forward. The
person spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly.
A group of friends and
neighbors welcomed
Broadwell, her husband,
Scott, and their young
sons back to their home
in Charlotte, N.C., after
Broadwell spent more
than a week being
hounded by media while
staying at her brother’s
home in Washington. The
family associate said
she was overwhelmed
by the outpouring of support from her neighbors.
While Petraeus has
given one interview, and
communicated his regret
over the affair through
friends and associates,
this is one of the first
messages to the public
from Broadwell.
Broadwell is still being investigated by
the FBI over classified
documents found on her
laptop and in her home,
which investigators believe the author gathered
while researching her
biography of Petraeus in
Afghanistan.

GOP: Party needs
to get with the times
WASHINGTON — To
hear some Republicans
tell it, the Grand Old
Party needs to get with
the times.
Some of the early
prescriptions offered by
officials and operatives
to rebuild after devastating elections: retool the
party message to appeal
to Latinos, women and
working-class people; upgrade antiquated get-outthe-vote systems with
the latest technology.
Teach candidates how
to handle the new media
landscape.
From longtime GOP
luminaries to the party’s
rising stars, almost everyone asked about the
Republicans’ Nov. 6 election drubbing seems to
agree that a wholesale
update is necessary for

a party that appears to
be running years behind
Democrats in adapting
to rapidly changing campaigns and an evolving
electorate.
Interviews with more
than a dozen Republicans at all levels of the
party indicated that postelection soul-searching
must quickly turn into a
period of action.
“We’ve got to have a
very brutally honest review from stem to stern
of what we did and what
we didn’t do, and what
worked and what failed,”
said former Mississippi
Gov. Haley Barbour, who
ran the party in the
1990s.

Marine Corps forms
fighter jet squadron
SAN DIEGO — The Marine Corps is forming the
first squadron of pilots
to fly the next-generation
strike fighter jet, months
after lawmakers raised
concern that there was
a rush to end the testing of an aircraft hit with
technical problems.
So far two veteran
pilots of the 3rd Marine
Aircraft Wing have been
trained to fly the F-35B.
They are becoming the
first members of the
Marine Fighter Attack
Squadron 121 that will
debut at a ceremony
Tuesday at the Marine
Corps Air Station in
Yuma, Ariz.
The first F-35B arrived
Friday and 15 more are
slated to arrive over the
next year. The Defense
Department has pumped
a half a billion dollars
into upgrading the facilities, hangars and
runways at the base to
make way for the nextgeneration fighter jet, officials said.
The pilots of the new
squadron are expected
to fly the aircraft by
year’s end.
The Marines are the
first in the military taking
the steps toward putting
the planes in operation.
The F-35B would replace
Cold War-era aircraft
such as the F/A-18 Hornet and AV-8B Harrier.
“It’s a pretty big
milestone that a lot
of people are looking
at and judging,” said
Marine Capt. Staci Reidinger, a spokeswoman
at the Yuma base. “The
lessons learned will be
shared.”

To many people the word evil has ﬂed around the corner
like a beaten dog. People regularly say words like “immoral,”
“bad” or “corrupt,” but let’s face it, the E-word does not go out
for a walk in public these days. EVIL - the word at least - is no
longer a part of the American vocabulary.
Evil is not forgotten in scripture. The word is mentioned
about 600 times (KJV). Man calling something or someone evil
today will hinder your social standing. It seems the word evil
is just too deﬁnitive for our modern society. It seems that some
churches have become more sophisticated and comfortable in the
last 30 years. They do not want to lose members by appearing
to be uneducated. So, they have shied away from speaking or
discussing about satan, the devil and evil. The Bible - “and this is
the condemnation, that light - Jesus - is come into the world, and
men have darkness - evil - rather than light, because their deeds manner of living - were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth
the light - Christ and His word - Neither cometh to the light, lest
his deeds - lifestyle - should be reproved - examined. But he that
doeth truth cometh to the light - Christ and His word - that his
deeds - manner of living - may be made manifest - made known
- that they are wrought in God.” (John 3:19-21).
Evil is ever present with us today. The word evil - sinful wicked arising from actual or inspected bad character or conduct.
We should fear for our children and grandchildren if their
view of the world becomes simply “good, bad or indifferent,”
with no spiritual facts about evil. All should be taught the Bible
and learn that we have spiritual absolute truth. Unless you ﬁnd
out the world is evil you will fall in love with this world. This is
no alternative.
By diluting the term evil we will fall into a trap that leads
us to believe that evil does not exist. We must not forget the fall
of man (Genesis 3). We must not forget the temptation of Christ
(Matt:4). We must not forget the world is lost, without Christ.
“For God sent not His son into the world to condemn the world;
but the world through Him might be saved” (John 3:17).
Jesus invites all to come to Him, obeying. Come believing
- turning from evil - being baptized to cleanse one from all evil now live for Christ. Read Acts 8.
What can we learn? Hell will be the home of those who live
evil, sinful lives. Think about it. Welcome!

LAHAINA, Hawaii — Mississippi State coach Rick Ray
has at least one strong approval after losing two of his
first three games as a head
coach: from North Carolina
coach Roy Williams.
Williams said he grabbed
Ray after ninth-ranked North
Carolina beat the Bulldogs 9549 at the Maui Invitational on

Monday to tell him he thinks
Ray is doing a good job.
“I told him that my first year
at Kansas, we lost eight games
in a row and things didn’t turn
around for us,” Williams said.
“His kids played awfully hard,
we just had too many players
for them.”
UNC looked determined
not to play the part of a beatable favorite at the tournament, a showcase built on

upsets.
Leslie McDonald scored
21 points as one of five Tar
Heels in double-figures. P.J.
Hairston had 18 points in 15
minutes, Reggie Bullock had
16 points, and Dexter Strickland and James McAdoo each
scored 10.
Roquez Johnson led the
Bulldogs in defeat with 12
points.
Ray said his team allowed

UNC too many offensive rebounds, giving its opponents
extra energy.
“Offensively, I knew it was
going to be a struggle, but
we lost our composure and
turned the ball over way too
much,” Ray said. “So, we have
got a lot to build on.”

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee Athletic Director Dave
Hart has no doubt that Derek
Dooley improved the Volunteers’ football program after inheriting a tough situation three
years ago.
But that improvement didn’t
show up in Tennessee’s record,
so Dooley no longer is the Vols’
coach.
Dooley was fired Sunday af-

ter posting Tennessee’s longest
run of consecutive losing seasons in over a century. Dooley
owned a 15-21 record that included an 0-15 mark against
Top 25 teams. Dooley was 4-19
in Southeastern Conference
competition and had lost 14 of
his last 15 league games.
“This is a result-based profession,” Hart said. “You cannot ignore the results at the
end of the day.”
The Vols’ (4-7, 0-7 SEC)

must beat Kentucky on Saturday to avoid going winless in
SEC play for the first time in
school history. Offensive coordinator Jim Chaney will serve
as Tennessee’s interim coach
for the Kentucky game. Hart
said Dooley turned down an
opportunity to coach the season finale out of concern that it
would affect the players’ focus.
Tennessee’s 41-18 loss to
Vanderbilt on Saturday guaranteed the Volunteers their

third consecutive losing season, the first time they have
finished below .500 in three
straight years since 1909-11.
Tennessee’s loss to Vanderbilt marked only the second
time in 30 years that the Vols
had fallen to their in-state rival.
The Vols will fail to reach a
bowl in back-to-back seasons
for the first time since being
left out four consecutive years
from 1975-78.

and led 29-6 in less than 10
minutes. Mississippi State never came closer than 20 points
behind after that. A fade-away
3-pointer from Hairston put
UNC up 42 with 5:30 left in the
game and the Tar Heels led by at
least 40 the rest of the way.
Mississippi State (1-2) made
just seven shots in the first half
and shot 28.3 percent for the
game. The Bulldogs made just
two 3-pointers.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to make sure our

better,â&#x20AC;? Mississippi State coach
Rick Ray said.
With the outcome clear early,
the game became little more
than a highlight reel for North
Carolina fans, with the Tar Heels
seemingly able to score at will.
Hairston closed the first half
by making a 55-foot bank shot,
then put UNC up 42 with 5:30
left with a fade-away 3-pointer.
After scoring its first four
points, Mississippi State failed
to string together back-to-back
field goals until midway through
the second half.
North Carolina coach Roy
Williams emptied his bench, using 16 players. McAdoo played
the most with 23 minutes.
Williams said the good shooting masked other parts of the
game he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fully impressed
with. Seven turnovers in the
first half was too many, he said,
and he was not pleased with his
teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rebounding.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we made shots, and everything looked good,â&#x20AC;? Williams
said.
North Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bench outscored Mississippi State by itself
with 51 points.
The Tar Heels shot 47.4 percent and 46.9 percent from
3-point range.
North Carolina next faces
Butler, which topped Marquette
on a buzzer-beater 3-pointer
earlier Monday. North Carolina
and Butler will play Tuesday in
the winnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bracket of the tournament held at the Lahaina Civic Center in Hawaii.
The tournament, hosted by
Division 2 team Chaminade, has

upsets ever in college hoops.

But the happiest of all

Doctor’s silence after wife’s death adds to widower’s grief
DEAR ABBY: My
wife, “Margie,” recently
lost her five-year battle
with leukemia. I’m still
grieving this huge loss.
Something I found particularly upsetting was the
apathetic attitude of her
doctor and his staff.
Margie was seeing a
specialist in a city 300
miles from our home. It
involved many trips to his
office as well as extended hospital treatments.
During this period, we
considered the doctor
and his staff more than
health care providers. We
thought of them as our
friends. Margie would
often bring them homecooked meals or pastries
from a bakery. In addition, because she did fine

needlework, she
made all
the women a set of
dishtowAbigail els.A f t e r
Van Buren my wife
passed
Dear Abby
away
at
home, I sent a note to
the doctor and his staff,
thanking them and expressing gratitude for all
they had done for her. I
never received one message in return. I understand they treat many patients, but don’t you think
someone could have given
me a call or sent a sympathy card?
I attend a bereavement
support group and was

surprised that I am not
the only one who has had
the same experience. Is
it normal for health care
providers to stop all contact with spouses after a
loved one dies? -- STILL
GRIEVING IN ARKANSAS
DEAR
STILL
GRIEVING: I’m very
sorry for your loss, and
for your disappointment.
However, everyone deals
with death and dying differently and doctors are
people, too. In the field
of oncology, for every victory there are also many
deaths. Emotional detachment is sometimes
the way that these physicians and staff protect
themselves from emotional pain. Please forgive

them.
DEAR ABBY: My sonin-law “Ralph” is a good
father, good husband and
we have gotten along well
for nearly 20 years. But an
issue has come up that has
me really upset.
Ralph was an exceptional wrestler in high school
until a shoulder injury
ended his career. Now he
wants his 10-year-old son,
“Carter,” to wrestle. Carter
went to a few practices in
early elementary school,
but showed no real interest in the sport. However,
he does like basketball and
shows potential to be a decent player.
Right now, my grandson’s dream is to have a
cellphone, and Ralph has
promised to get him one

-- if he goes out for wrestling. I said I’d buy him a
phone so he won’t have to
go out for wrestling just to
get one.
I’m afraid Carter could
get hurt while participating in a sport he has no
real desire for, and could
end up being unable to
play the sport of his choice.
I know there’s danger of
injury in any sport, but at
least if an injury did occur, it would be while doing something he wants to
do. And injuries aside, he
should be able to pursue
the sport of his choice, not
his dad’s. We need some
guidance here. -- FRUSTRATED GRANDMA
IN IOWA
DEAR GRANDMA: I
agree with you, and for the

sensible reasons you stated. However, I would add
this: It appears your sonin-law may be attempting
to relive a chapter of his
life in which he failed to
succeed because of his injury. To lure his son away
from the sport he likes
by bribing him to go into
wrestling is unfair to the
boy. I hope you and your
daughter will talk to Ralph
and tell him you think this
is a bad idea, and that he
will listen to you.

20). Sometimes that
which you imagine will
bring you happiness
doesn’t, or you underestimate the joy you
could derive from simple
experiences. But today
your visioning powers will
be both strong and accurate.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(Nov. 20). Change is a
constant this year as you
careen into the future

(which you also happen
to be creating as you go).
In the next three months,
your personal and professional passions will
intermingle. Cultivate your
burgeoning talent in January; try apprenticeship or
internship. Confidence is
your pheromone. Pisces
and Cancer people adore
you. Your lucky numbers
are: 4, 14, 38, 20 and
17.

Horoscopes
When you start to believe that change is hard,
think again. It’s more
true that your growth as
a human often has been
automatic. You’ve already experienced many
incarnations, from infant
to toddler to child and
beyond. On the last full
day of the 2012 Scorpio
solar transit, look back
and celebrate all the
people you’ve been.
ARIES (March 21-April
19). It’s important to
you to keep up a certain
level of appearances,
but when this is difficult,
consider dropping the
ruse. It’s really OK to
be a loveable mess at
times, too.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20). You feel unpredictable and fun. You’ve
already taken care of the
ones who really need
you, so avoid getting
saddled with any other
responsibility or obliga-

tion that could limit your
ability to seize the day’s
opportunities.
GEMINI (May 21-June
21). Insincerity turns
you off, and you’re not
interested in being sold
on anything. So the one
asking fluff questions
obviously crafted in an
effort to gain rapport is
probably up to no good,
at least as far as you’re
concerned.
CANCER (June 22July 22). You want to be
loved, but not if it means
giving up your freedom.
Your independence is
of premium importance.
You are careful not to accept favors from anyone
who might want to own
you in return.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Those who have been
stuck in big city traffic
know that under the right
circumstances a person
on foot can travel much
faster than a vehicle.

Small steps may seem
inconsequential, but only
to the inexperienced
traveler.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22). You like people and
take the time to get to
know them. You’re not
trying to figure out “their
deal” so you can offer
advice and fix it. You’re
genuinely interested.
Your curiosity endears
you to others.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.
23). Blood is thicker than
water. You’ll remember
this when the one who
seems intent on driving
you crazy also happens
to be a person you’re obligated to be nice to for
familial reasons.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). If it makes you feel
good at the end of the
day, do it. If not, don’t
justify an action by trying
to convince yourself that
there are important reasons why you must. The

proof of an action will be
in the results.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
22-Dec. 21). Keep trying.
You’ve heard it before,
but right now you truly
believe it in every cell
and atom of your being:
The only people who truly
fail are those who never
try.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). Dysfunctional
people are in your world
for a reason -- perhaps
to teach you tolerance.
You’ll find it easier to be
around difficult people
when you stop trying to
fix them.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Your memory
will serve you well and
perhaps better than you
want it to. Processing
past events will be a
crucial step in your future planning. You’re too
aware to make the same
mistake twice.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March

DETROIT â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two years
after a wounded General
Motors returned to the
stock market, the symbol of American industrial might is thriving
again.
The anniversary of
GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s initial public stock
offering in November
2010 happened last
week.
The company has
made money for 11
straight quarters, piling
up more than $16 billion in profits. Its cars
and trucks are selling for
good prices. And sales
are strong in China.
But there are signs of
trouble. GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s U.S. sales,
the prime driver of its
profits, arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rising as
quickly as the overall
market. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been
turmoil in the executive
ranks, and the company
is hemorrhaging cash in
Europe.
Since the IPO, here
are GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s achievements,
struggles and question
marks.

Achievements
â&#x2013; BIG PROFITS: GM is
making money â&#x20AC;&#x201D; nearly
$4 billion so far this
year. Most of that came
from the U.S., where GM
cars and trucks are selling for almost 6 percent
more than they did in
January of 2011.
The average selling
price is $32,662, says
the TrueCar.com auto
pricing site. GM also is
making good money in
China and the rest of
Asia, and it has turned
around its money-losing
South American operations with a host of new
products.
â&#x2013;
BETTER CARS:
Before its 2009 bankruptcy, GM relied on
trucks and SUVs to
make money. Cars were
an afterthought, and GM
got a reputation for poor

quality.
The business model
worked fine until gas
prices spiked over $3 per
gallon around 2005 and
buyers shifted toward
cars. Since bankruptcy,
the company has rolled
out new compact, subcompact and mini cars
that are selling well. Carbased crossovers, which
are more efficient than
traditional truck-based
SUVs, also are selling.
Trucks accounted for
32 percent of GM sales
in 2008, with cars and
crossovers making up 68
percent.
Now, trucks are down
to 27 percent. Sales of
the Chevrolet Cruze
compact are closing in
on 200,000 through
October, far better than
GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previous compact
and a strong counterpunch to Toyota and
Honda.
Also, the Chevy Sonic,
the only subcompact
made in the U.S., has
become the top car in
its segment with more
than 70,000 sales this
year. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more than
10 times the number
of subcompacts that
GM sold in the first 10
months of 2011.
â&#x2013; CASH PILE: GM,
which nearly ran out of
cash at the end of 2008,
ended the third quarter with $31.6 billion
in cash and securities.
Bankruptcy wiped out
old GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debts and burdensome contracts, and
the new companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cars
and trucks have sold
well around the world.
The cash allows GM to
invest in products and
restructuring. It even
bought a U.S. auto finance company, which
helps it to offer low-interest loans and cheap
leases. GM also is bidding for international
assets of Ally Financial,
GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former finance
arm, to help make cheap

loans in Europe and
elsewhere. Early in November, GM took out
$11 billion in new credit
lines, giving it access to
more than $42 billion.
The giant figure leads
many analysts to believe
that GM is preparing to
buy back at least part of
the U.S. governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
26.5 percent stake in the
company.
â&#x2013; NEW LINEUP: As it
headed into bankruptcy,
GM cut spending on research. So for much of
the past two years, the
company had few new
models to offer. But now
itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flush with cash and
spending millions to update or replace 70 percent of its North American lineup by the end of
next year.
That includes muchanticipated
full-size
pickup trucks, which
pull in big profits.
Cadillac also is getting a makeover with the
new full-size XTS and
the ATS, a small luxury
sport sedan designed to
compete with the BMW
3-Series, a top-seller in
the luxury market.
Buick gets the Encore
small SUV, while Chevy
is getting an all-new Impala big car as well as a
new Malibu midsize car.

Struggles
â&#x2013;
STOCK
PRICE:
Shares of GM sold for
$33 when the company
re-entered the stock
market on November 18,
2010. For a few months,
everything looked good.
The stock peaked in January of 2011 at almost
$39. But then the bottom dropped out and the
shares tumbled.
In July of 2012, they
hit a low of $18.72,
weighed down by a
slowing U.S. economy
and troubles in Europe.
Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve recovered some
since, but are still almost

30 percent below the
IPO price. That means
the U.S. government
canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sell its 500 million
shares in the company
without losing billions.
The government got
its stake in exchange for
a $49.5 billion bailout
almost four years ago.
But the taxpayers are
still $27 billion in the
hole on the investment,
and GM shares would
have to sell for $53 each
for the government to
break even.
â&#x2013;
U.S.
MARKET
SHARE: GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s share of
the critical U.S. market
has dropped to 18 percent from 22 percent
since the end of 2008.
That means rivals like
Toyota are taking away
buyers who used to drive
a Chevy, Buick, Cadillac
or GMC. There are more
troubling signs ahead.
GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s U.S. sales are up
only 3.6 percent this
year, far behind the 13.8
percent growth of the
overall market.
GM blames the slow
growth on having the
oldest model lineup in
the market. That will
soon change to the newest lineup, the company
says. By the end of next
year, GM will roll out
21 new or refurbished
models, including a key
Chevy Silverado pickup.
GM, which relies on U.S.
sales to turn big profits,
could run into trouble
if the new models donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t
sell.
â&#x2013; EUROPE: GM has
lost $16 billion in Europe in the past 12 years,
but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trying to resuscitate the business with
cost cuts and new products. CEO Dan Akerson
said this week that European operations are
making progress toward
profitability and he expects them to break even
before taxes by the middle of this decade.
Reaching that goal

will be tough, though.
The company expects to
lose $1.5 billion to $1.8
billion in Europe before taxes this year, and
analysts say it has 20- to
30-percent more factory
capacity in the region
than it needs.
Closing more plants
will require drawn-out
negotiations and expensive buyouts of union
workers.

Questions ahead
â&#x2013; LEADERSHIP: Akerson became CEO in
September of 2010,
GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth leader in
two years.
He took the reins as
the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recovery
from bankruptcy was
hitting its stride. The
board hoped his background in private equity
would give him a fresh
perspective and allow
him to shake up the
slow-moving company.
Despite
streamlining
decision-making, many
in the company view
him unwilling to listen.
He recently removed the
heads of sales, marketing, and Europe, which
some critics viewed as
too much change too
fast.
Akerson has pushed to
bring products to market faster, but has hit resistance from engineers
who fear that quality
could suffer. Finally, he
has bred resentment
among employees by
complaining that GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
culture is risk-averse
and slow.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;If Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m told the culture
Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been brought up in is
bad, then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost like
a personal insult,â&#x20AC;? said
Michel Anteby, a Harvard Business School
professor who studies
organizational
behavior. Anteby says it takes
longer than two years to
change a company the
size of GM.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;
Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s junior U.S.
senator says Republicans
are willing to meet President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call
for new revenue to stave
off tax increases and deep
cuts in government programs â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but only if Democrats accept what he calls
entitlement reform.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have
some bipartisan give-andtake on this and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not
sounding good at the outset,â&#x20AC;? Sen. Roger Wicker
told The Commercial Appeal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have
to admit we have a spending problem.â&#x20AC;?
Some Democrats say
thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no reason a victorious president who picked
up seats in both House and
Senate should take major
cuts from programs like
Social Security or Medicare when allowing Bush
tax cuts on the wealthy to
expire would significantly
dent the deficit.
To reach spending
goals, Wicker said during an interview last week
in his Washington office,
Congress must make cuts.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;What we need to do
is approach it as a family does that has fallen
on hard times,â&#x20AC;? he said.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;They sit around the table
and they say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford this anymore â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we
canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford this much
anymore.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; And I just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t
see the willingness. The
Democratic leadership of
the Senate appeared not
to want to do any entitlement reform. It is absolutely a mathematical impossibility to get anywhere
near where we need to
be unless we address the
growth of entitlements.â&#x20AC;?
